Dude, I TOTES get it! Sadly, there's a lot (A LOT!) of FAIL when it comes to women in the media. And, to a certain extent, it feels like the longer I'm in fandom, the more I feel confident about crit how women are portrayed in media and the more saaaadface I get about XYZ female character in XYZ movies and TV shows. :-/
That said, I'm feeling slightly stubborn about it because it's so easy to pick the same old characters and that's not really where I'm thinking of going with the 30-days of women meme. I kinda want to give props to those characters that we don't hear often about. Hmmm...
